Mirriad "loops in" new creative partner

1 September 2021

Mirriad Advertising plc

("Mirriad" or the "Company")

Mirriad, the leading in-content advertising company, has today signed a new partnership agreement with LOOPING GROUP, the leading German tech-enabled communications agency that leverages the power of data-driven storytelling in conjunction with high-quality cross-channel content for its clients.

As part of the worldwide partnership, Mirriad will bring its in-content advertising and AI-powered, dynamic creative solutions to LOOPING GROUP's growing global client roster that includes the likes of Mercedes-Benz, Allianz and Deutsche Telekom.

The agreement represents the Company's first international cooperation with a Germany-based agency and now that the agreement is signed, Mirriad and LOOPING GROUP will develop an introducer plan covering prospective partners, customers and clients.

The two companies will also pilot a progressive approach to how video content assets can operate across geographical borders, time zones and languages. This dynamic content solution will accommodate product and service variations, varying channel and audience requirements as well as any key future updates. Crucially, it will dramatically reduce associated carbon footprints and lower production costs for advertisers whilst still delivering most relevant content for the respective audiences.

Stephan Beringer, CEO of Mirriad, said: "This partnership comes at a time when consumers increasingly avoid ads and are becoming incredibly hard to reach and connect with. Brands need to become a deeply engaging part of peoples' experiences in new and radical ways, without interrupting experiences and by enhancing them instead.

"In LOOPING GROUP we have found an outstanding partner who are championing the power of content, context and data in marketing and see the unique potential of our in-content advertising platform and our dynamic content capabilities to help their clients grow and reach their customers. Our work together will be uniquely creative and effective and of huge benefit to a range of most powerful global brands."

Dominik Wichmann, CCO and Co-Founder of LOOPING GROUP: "We are very happy to win Mirriad as a strong international partner and to make their innovative in-content advertising formats accessible to our clients. In our swift digital world, where attention has become the most valuable commodity, it is our goal to shift the industry's focus to the great potential that high-quality and long-lasting video content holds for brands and advertisers to build relationships with their audiences and to engage them in a sustainable and entertaining manner."
